About the Item

The lamp is made of solid lacquered metal with a dark green lacquered "rigitule" (perforated metal) shade, to create a subdued light. In good condition with its original electrification which has been verified. Height: 32cm. Length: 25 cm. Width: 13 cm. Born in Hungary, Mathieu Matégot (1910-2001) studied at the Budapest School of Fine Arts and Architecture until 1929 and created sets for the National Theatre. He then traveled to Italy and the United States before settling in France in 1931. A volunteer in the French army during World War II and taken prisoner, he worked in a mechanical accessories factory, where he discovered and experimented with perforated sheet metal. Upon his release, he obtained French nationality. In 1944, he established a workshop for the artisanal manufacture of furniture using various materials such as metal, rattan, glass, Formica, and perforated sheet metal. Initially based in Paris, the workshop later moved to Casablanca. All the furniture and other objects feature clever, practical, and fun designs. Distributed in limited editions of 200 in decoration shops, his works were a huge success.
